SaaS VC

List of 3 large Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) venture capital investors

SaaS is short for software as a service. The market size for on-demand software was around $113,81B in 2020 and is estimated to grow even more in upcoming years. This article highlights three venture capital firms from our global VC investor list that are interested in SaaS startups.

1. Conviction Venture Capital (UK)

Conviction is a VC firm that is interested in B2B SaaS companies. They are privately backed and highly focused on growth startups. Sine 2017 they have invested over $100M. Konsentus is part of their portfolio and describe their business as a SaaS-enabled service that can increase confidence in open banking.

2. Forum Ventures (USA)

Forum Ventures, formerly known as Acceleprise, is a fund, program, platform, and community for B2B SaaS startups. This year they have invested in Waivr, for example. Waivr is a payment system developed for the subscription economy.

3. Hi Inov (France)

Hi Inov is a venture capital firm that supports startups from early-stage to growth stage. They have €250M in assets under management and have backed 37 startups. One of them is 360 Learning, an e-learning and digital training platform. Another SaaS is DataHawk, an ecommerce business management platform.

Why B2B software-as-a-service are of particular interest for global VCs

The year 2022 was exceptionally challenging for the tech world. Many SaaS startups have suffered from increased economic pressure and have had to lay off employees. Nevertheless, a large number of venture capital investors continue to believe in the success of B2B SaaS companies. This is especially due to the prospects of predictable recurring revenues. Business customers, once acquired, are considered reliable and well-paying clientele. B2B SaaS startups will therefore continue to be very popular in the digital environment.
